Antonio Lasciac (1856–1946)[1] was an Italian architect, engineer, poet and musician.[1]

Heritage

Lasciac was born to father Peter Laščak and mother Jožefa Trampuš in Friulian fourth Podturn in Gorizia 21st in September 1856. He was the first of ten children. Three of his siblings died in childhood.[citation needed]

Due to the Slovene character of his village of Ročinj and his Slovene ancestors Laščak's heritage is Slovene rather than Italian.[citation needed]

Descendants

He immigrated to Gorizia and opened a business with Mihael Trampušom, another Slovene. He fell in love with Trampušom's daughter and took over his crafts workshop after the marriage. Her official Italian name is written as Gioseffa. Her father Mihael was born in Gorizia, to farmers from surrounding Kras. Lasciac's wife Marija Alojzija Plesničar was Slovene and bore three children with unusual and fully Italian names: Plautilla Angelina Francesca, Fabbrizio Antonio Giuseppe and Romeo Italico Alessandro.[citation needed]

Lasciac designed buildings in Gorizia[1] and many Eastern capitals and cities, especially Egypt.[1] The Khedive Palace in Istanbul and the Tahra Palace in Cairo (1907) are among his most notable works.
